Trash-Talking Trump Pushed Two Allies Into Vicious Fight

President Donald Trump is accused of instigating a feud between two U.S. allies with a secret phone call—before offering to use his peacemaking skills to settle it.

Trump, 79, allegedly called the president of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in November to discuss a private conversation he had with Saudi Arabia’s crown prince, The New York Times reported Friday.

Both neighboring nations, which have business ties to Trump’s family and are considered powerful U.S. allies, have grown increasingly divided, backing opposing sides in violent conflicts in Yemen and Sudan.
